Soldiers Owe Their Souls To The Company Store

Everyday there is more news about the population being disappointed in how the government has handled things for the past eight years. We have had issues during these two Bush administrations with OutSourcing, inflation oil prices, doing an about face with abandoning Afghanistan and not getting Bin Laden, al Qaida and the taliban when we had the chance and the constant struggle with the economy. Then there was the cutting of the budget at the beginning of the Invasion in Iraq without the proper equipment or the number in man power that was needed for the rebuild. But something today has caught my eye that does need some discussion.

According to the ABC news in the article written by Joseph Rhee the pentagon debt collectors have inflated penalties and fees and have illegally collected money from the soldiers benefits or tax refunds which have caused serious problems for the soldiers and veterans. The money that was being collected was for the uniforms and ammunition that the soldiers have to buy while in service for their country.
